Iranian Proxy Munitions Target US Base In Syria
Published 1 years ago
Iranian proxy forces released footage of loitering munition launches intended for a US base, reportedly in eastern Syria, likely the at-Tanf outpost on the Syria-Iraq border.
These Shia militias are shadow forces of the Iranian Islamic Guard Corps' (IIRGC) Quds Force. They have repeatedly struck or targeted at least three US bases in Iraq and Syria since the Hamas massacres in Israel in early October.
The US has a contingent of approximately 2,500 troops in Iraq and another 900 or so in Syria.
